~Boiled _â€" Down t‘ Facts Dr. Ward‘sâ€"â€"â€"â€" Blood and Nerve Pills No remedy ever introduced in Canada has gained so many words of praise from sufferers all over the counâ€" try as these thoroughly effective pills. Because they positively cure all disâ€" eases brought on by impoverished blood, such as heart trouble, nervâ€" ousness, rheumatism, dyspepsia, etc. Because they induce sound, healthy sleep, and restore VIM, VIGOUR, and VITALITY to the body. Because their use enables the system to successfully resist attacks of colds and the inseparable reâ€" sults, viz., lung and kidney troubles, a fact of especial importance at this season of the year.

NEW JERUSALEM CONFERENCE. ‘The opening session of the convenâ€" tion of the Canada Association of the New Jerusalem Church was held in the church in Berlin at the corner of Water and Weber street on Friday afternoon. The meeting was called to order by its president, the Rev F W Tuerk and opened with religious services. Ministers and Delegates were preâ€". sent from Montreal, Toronto, Parkdale, Wellesley and various other places Reports were read from the societies in Montreal, Toronto, Berlin and Welâ€" lesley and circles in Hamilton, London and Randclph Ont. The reports of the treasurer, C A Abrens jr, and of the New Church Book Room in Toronto, were read, audited and adopted. _ A missionary report by the Revy G L Allbuttas to his misslonary work in Canada was read and ordered to be printed. _ A good deal of routine business was attended to, the meeting adjourned until 10 o‘clock this morning. In the evening an excellent sacred concert was given under the direction of Prof. Theo. Zoellner which was largely attended and greatly appreciatâ€" ed by all who had the good fortune to be present. A farewell social was tendored to Rev. R. Head of the Church St. U. B. Church, by the Young People‘s Christâ€" ian Union on Friday evening. Mr. Ifead‘s brief tenure of the pastorate has been highly acceptable. He leaves in a few days for Westerville, Ohio, to complete his theological course, and carries with him the best wishes of his large circle of friends in Beflin. There was a large attendance of the members and adberents of the Church on Friday evening. _A busiâ€" ness meeting of the Y. P. C. U. was lirst held during which reports of the various branches were recived during the year. These showed the society to be in a healthy condition. This part concluded, Mr. J. U. Clemens called the pastor forward, and after reminding him that the congregation was cvidently not pleased with him, presented him "with a purse of gold ($45) on behalf of the Y. P. C. C. and the congregation. . Mr. Clemens spoke feelingly of Mr. Head‘s connection with the Church. BHe had proved a most faithful, earnest and devoted pastor, and the Church had made marked progress in all departments under his pastorate. Mr. Head, though taken by surprise expressed his thauks in a few well chosen words. Rev. I. Groh spoke briefly after which a short literary and musical program was rendered. _ Refreshments were then served and a pleasant social hour closed the proceedings. 'couu'riï¬coiglfl EES. Rowccn FAREWELL TO THE PASTOR. St. Andrew‘s Church was fairly well | filled on Friday evening when the veteran imissionary, Rev. John G. Paton 1. D., told of his thirty years‘ work among the savages of the New Hebrides group, of the South Sea Islands. The venerable doctor has seen four score years of this life but is still hale and hearty. Hisaddress was a very able one and he held the interest of his hearers to his last word. When ho went to the island thirty years ago, the people there were naked savages, and now there are thousands of native Christians and the twentyâ€"two misâ€" sionaries at work are aided by scores of native helpers. The method they haee of Christianizing the natives there differs from that employed in most of the mission fields. Before taking them into full membership in the church, and performing the ordinâ€" ance of baptism upon them, they must stand twelve months‘ probation to prove their faithfulness to the Christâ€" ian religion. _ Christianity there has wrought wonderful changes in the customs and also costumes of the people. The latter of course is only natural as no Christian would be seen in the scanty raiment which the savâ€" age deems sufficient. One distinctive change in the customs is the® interest Christianity gives them in things beauâ€" tiful, leading them tb decorate and beautify their homes. At the conâ€" clusion of the interesting discourse a collection amounting to the neat aum of $31.65 was taken up and presented 1 .o the missionary.

In Germany especially these proposâ€" als are so diametrically opposed . to Emperor William‘s policy that they have â€" produced somecthing like conâ€" sternation. As The Duily News ediâ€" torially remarksy "Count Von Waldersee was assuredâ€" ly not sent to assist in restoring the Empressâ€"Dow ager .‘ It is recognized on all sides that Germany‘s decision is the pivot . of the â€" matter.
